August 10, 2019

The second weekend of August, and with a one evening reprieve from the heat this week, Tuesdays run was almost enjoyable.  The Y, 5K / 10K was not too bad this past Saturday, as the weather was just a little cooler than some of the past years.  Everyone seemed to have a good time running this race, even the new runners from Team 13.  The Brat Trot, had a good run also, and beer flowed after the race.  There were also a few that ran the Owensville Watermelon Run, and took home a melon.  What a prize!  A couple of the group went and ran the Eagle Creek Trail Marathon in Indianapolis.  I'm sure everyone had fun!

This weekend we will continue to follow Team 13 and have 6 and 7.5 add on to the Team 13, 7 mile run from Vectren.  Run Walk 812 is staying with Team 13 for the 7 miles.  The Loop Group will continue to follow the summer routes which meets at St. Paul's Church on the West side.

If you want a race this weekend, There is the MentorKids Kentucky Rugged Race 5K at Diamond Lake the 10th at 6 am, by Rise up and Run.  To the Finish has races Friday and Saturday this weekend, with Fox on the Run 5K run/walk, at the Waterfront in Downtown Henderson on the 9th at 7 am, and Cisne Reunion 5k Run/Walk at the Towne Square, the 10th at 8 am.  Whether training or racing, have a great weekend!

As always, be courteous and thoughtful to the drivers, while running the streets!

Goal for 2019

Would you look at this!  We are into the first weekend of August, and right in the middle of the hot spell.  Last weekend we had a couple of local races, one in Jasper, the Parklands six hour endurance run, Night Fever which is part of a series at Angel Mounds, and Night Flight, at USI.  Then there was the group that traveled to Washington to run the Jack and Jill marathon.  Congrats to all that ran, and to the Marathoners that did so well in Washington!

This week we will have a 12 mile training run, but most will be doing the Y series 5/10 K race downtown.  If you are not racing or volunteering for the race, there is also the Loop Group routes on the West side at St. Paul's Church.

This weekends races are The Y 5/10k downtown starting on the Court street side of the Y at 7 am.  Packet pickup is at Party Central on Vine street from 10 am to 6 pm, on Friday, and 5:30 to 6:30 am Saturday before the race.  There is also the Brat Trot 5 k at Germania Maennerchor starting at 8 am.  Check with Rise up and Run for packet and race information.  There is also the Watermelon run in Owensville.  The 4 mile and 2 mile walk / run start at 8 am, and the 1/4 mile kids race starts at 9.  Whether racing or training, have fun out there.

As always, be courteous and thoughtful to the drivers, while running the streets!

What a relief this weeks weather has been!  I hate to wish my life away, but come on Fall!  Last weekend we had the Orangetheory 5K Fitness Challenge, the I Love Beer Run, the 8 Hour Dream race, the end of the Last Annual Vol State Road Race, and some of our fellow runners riding their bicycles across Indiana in the RAIN ride.  Hope everyone survived intact from the heat of the weekend!  Congrats to Chastity Hertel, Sharon Carver, for finishing the 314 mile Vol State, and  Cathy Downs for her 1st Female overall, nearly 40 miles in the heat of the day at Dream, those that did the Rain Ride, and any other runner that had a major accomplishment this past week

This weekend in training the BOR runners are going to start at USI at 6 am or whatever time you prefer, and then follow Team 13 with their 5 mile training run.  The starting point is the Children's Education Center area.  We are running 7 miles and if you want to time it right for joining Team 13 start accordingly.  If you wish, you could meet at Burdette Park and run the trail to end at the
Children's Education center for about 3.5 miles and then add the Team 13, 5 miler and then run back to Burdette.  BOR group, carry your own water The Loop Group will start at St. Paul's Church on the West side for their loops.  Run Walk 812 will not have an add on this weekend, but if you want miles, I'm sure you can add some!

This weekend in racing, a big group is going out to Washington State to run a 1/2 or Full Marathon.  Jack and Jill should be a fun downhill race to run.  There is also the Parklands 6 hour endurance race in Jasper IN.  There is also Night Flight Saturday evening starting at 7 pm, at USI. You may notice that I miss races occasionally so if you send me an email, it will help me to remember your race.  I try to follow posts on Facebook for my information.   Have fun out there racing!  

As always, be courteous and thoughtful to the drivers, while running the streets!
